Childcare is provided at our Leicester day nursery for part-time and full days sessions, from 1 day to 5 days per week; please click for details of our nursery fees.

Nursery Opening Times

Monday – Friday 8.15 am – 5.45 pm

3 and 4 year olds are entitled to a funded nursery education place from the term following their 3rd birthday. Our staff can inform you of the entitlement which we can automatically arrange via the local authority. Further information can be found online here.

If you are already registered with a voucher scheme we also accept child care vouchers. These are non-taxable and exempt from National Insurance contributions.

Tax-Free Childcare can provide up to £500 every 3 months (£2,000 a year) for each of your children to help with the costs of childcare. If you get Tax-Free Childcare, the government will pay £2 for every £8 you pay your childcare provider via an online account.

We are registered to take 37 children for each session. A waiting list is operated using clear criteria for allocation of places.

Situated in a Victorian Villa Stanhope House Day Nursery has been operating for nearly 45 years, so we have had plenty of opportunity to adapt the building to our needs.
